Hi everyone, 

I found out a weird thing today. I logged in to a Struts app and got forwarded 
to the homepage, which contains a sortable displaytag table. The URL for the 
sortable columns of the table contains the user name and password I entered! 

For example, on the login page, I used the login Test/myPassword, and the URL 
for a sortable column is the following:

http://127.0.0.1:7767/test/homepage.do?d-1111-s=3&d-1111-o=2&passwd=myPassword&submit=login&username=Test

Any idea why it does that, and how I can fix this security risk? 

Thanks. 

Wilson
